📋 About This Mod

This is an addition to the town of Raven Rock. It adds a new section of the town just to the north, you can't miss it. A new game is highly recommended due to the world encounter marker I moved. If you install it mid-playthrough, you'll have random enemies occasionally spawning in town.

The mod adds seven new merchants, two inns, four followers, and a bunch of npcs with working schedules. This is my first time experimenting with the level design of the creation kit so please go easy on me if there's any issues.

I wanted to add a player home you can purchase and to make the followers hirelings but setting up dialogue is not something I'm familiar with sadly. I'll need to experiment with that more some other time.

I moved the entrance to Ashfall's Tear from the creation club mod into one of the inns, The Old Three Tavern. I had the idea of the old Temple using an inn as a front for their hideout. A bunch of people coming and going from an inn wouldn't raise suspicions but everyone leaving town to go into a cave would most certainly raise some eyebrows.

The patches I made are for mods I primarily use. I can try to make other patches for mods if there's enough demand for it. My time is pretty limited and right now I'm focusing on making another town mod. This one is going to be significantly bigger and I'm having so much fun making it.

If anyone wants to make any edits, translations, adjustments, patches, fixes, port this to LE or the Xbox, you are completely free to do so. I firmly believe a free and open modding community is a healthy one. Just be sure to credit me when making any mods for this one.
